First Family Night of the school year at the Mid Town Family Resource Center

Tonight is the first family night here at the Mid Town Family Resource Center for the school year just started. The after school program is off to a great start; with some new students, (and families!) and the new staff "learning the ropes." Once a month we have a meal for the families and have a supportive program for the parents, and some activities for the children. Tonight's program is just an introduction to the Family Resource Center, and all that CHS has, and things we are connected to, for the families, in our goal and mission to support families and help reduce their stressors. The meal is sandwiches and pasta salad, and from what I hear, maybe even ice cream sundaes! This is coming packed in with preparation for Saturday's 4th annual Neighborhood Day celebration in our parking lot. We got a wild shipment from the Mountaineer Food Bank today of bread products, pastries, hoping these would be helpful to the cakewalk on Saturday, but its a LOT of donuts and such. F-H club is just finishing up now, and things will shift gears quickly.
